I fell asleep at 6:30, woke up at 11:30, and I'm killing time until I get sleepy again. Thank God my favorite moron is active tonight. (No, not you. Sorry.) I can stick a few needles in him, go to sleep, and wake up to newer and greater grammatical outrages. Life is good.
we had a director / writer named Michel Audiard , always writing about the bad boys from the 40's to the 60's ,pimps, french mafia...and the dialogues were priceless , they all use metaphors. The don't tell "why did He marry her , she's ugly", they'd rather say " this society will end by the hand of men neglecting business over a winner ( prostitute) who's not the Queen of England or the jewels of the Crown"; they don't say "that contraband alcohol mix is too strong", they say " I knew a Polish girl who used to drink this for breakfast, there's some apple in it right?" . They all kill people , deal dope , run bordelos but they are always poets :) you'd love that
Sweet ! they're shite usually ( except for The Rocky Horror Picture Show" and singing in the rain of course)...I've just received a text message from Jo :" I'm sure you won't be ready on time" ( I hate watches so I 'm cool with that statement, it's absolutely true ...) so I asked " what are we going to watch again?" and Jo goes " I can't remember but hurry up we can't be late"...now Ciaran, can you feel the Vibe? ..the "Jayzus it's going to be all weird and nonsense and boring evening " vibe ? I can!
Doing great ; I'm supposed to see a musical tonight , I have no idea what it's about and if I'm going to fall asleep or laugh me arse off but I'm opened to change :) How are you?
I did get one particularly good prezzie - 'The Essential Spike Milligan'. I've owned all of his books over the years but currently have none as I can't remember which 'so-called' friends borrowed them!
Latest update on Hubble: Got the galleys back yesterday. Of the six mistakes I found prior to the missing chapter, they corrected four of them incorrectly! I can't believe these f*****g incompetents! Flakes! Jack-offs! Jack-off flakes, even -- the stuff that falls off after the abused organ dries. Do I write them another nastygram and give them one more chance, or should I write them another nastygram and tell them to jam it sideways? My semi-brother-in-law thinks Amazon is a much better-organized operation. Now I have to trudge ahead through the literary tundra and find the other six mistakes, which are found by adding 17 to the previously-recorded page numbers, because they did, at least, manage to add Chapter XI in the proper place. Grrrrr... Just another lovely day here in Paradise. 72 and sunny. F**k it. I'm gonna take a bike ride.
How's the Zapp-daughter? How's the wife? You don't call. You don't write. (But then, neither do I.) Say something! Preferably obscene and physically unlikely...
Not nearly as much as the Bloviator is making it out to be, that's for sure. I kinda like Napoleon's twist on things, unlike old Mushmouth. Not saying it's 100% true, but what is? Did you notice how he turned everyone else into sycophants and remained unsmeared? H**l, I was trying to be nice, too. What a maroon!
When my daughter was little we used to pick up stuff off the floor we didn't want her to have and put it on top the refrigerator. Then once when she was about eighteen months old, I caught her in the kitchen with one of the dining chairs she had slid into the kitchen, she had put one of her small plastic chairs on top of the first chair and was trying to add a third so she can reach the top of the fridge. No surprise then that she wants to go to college to be a mechanical engineer. I think she will be a natural. Besides, all teenagers are a da mn site smarter than their parents.
Have not started yet :) Perhaps later today. Home alone :)

Don't forget your shovel if you want to go to work......
Spew alert! Bad science alert! Hip waders and nose plugs required!
yeah : I said no, I get to stay home :)

A flaming infusion of tetra-hydra-cannabinol, followed by a cold beer.

It was an attack of Titonitus. I already apologized.
Cheers Ciaran. Had a great day, thanks.

"A family man from Siberia
As a father was very inferior,
But one operation
revised the situation
And now he's a Mother Superior"
World's a poorer place without Spike

I do. I use it more often as a noun these days, you f*****g jackoff.

Nothing new on the Hubble front. They're probably still trying to figure out where Chapter XI goes.
